How to determine the hp, on a Mercruiser 5.7?

call around and see who has a prop shaft mounted dyno which should get the

That's a good idea. There is a fairly reputable boat dealership about
thirty miles from me. And I'm going to ask them to do some "check-up"
on the boat this spring when I dig it out of mothball. They just might
have a dyno.
Thanks!
